Iran Nuclear Watch: Iran – “Defenses Can Withstand Any Invasion”

A test launch of Iran’s new missile during the manoeuvers along with the Gulf Sea and Sea of Oman, in March 2006. Iran said it successfully test-fired a new land-to-sea missile in Gulf war games that have aroused international concern amid rising tensions over its nuclear programme

ASSociated Press: Iran: Defenses Can Withstand Any Invasion

A top Iranian military official said Tuesday the country can now defend itself against any invasion originating from outside the region – a clear reference to the United States – as it tested a second new radar-avoiding missile.

The new surface-to-sea missile is equipped with remote-control and searching systems, state-run television reported. It said the new missile, called Kowsar after the name of a river in paradise, was a medium-range weapon that Iran had the capability to mass-produce.

It also asserted that the Kowsar’s guidance system could not be scrambled, and that it had been designed to sink ships.

Shortly after the test, the chief of the elite Revolutionary Guards, Gen. Yahya Rahim Safavi, warned that Iran was now able to “confront any extra-regional invasion,” referring to the United States without mentioning it by name.

More bloviations from the Iranians about military breakthoughs and new technology. They seem to forget what the United States possesses:

And the delivery methods to affect the result……

From under the Sea:

Sea-Based Strategic Weapons

Non-Strategic Nuclear Weapons

From the Air:

Air-Based Strategic Weapons

From the United States mainland:

Land-Based Strategic Weapons

So, Flap is not too concerned with military CRAP TRASH TALK from Iran.

Can Iran block the Strait of Hormuz and disrupt the world oil flow. You bet. But, this action also cuts off a main source of their countries revenue and trade.

Iran would best to stand down their nuclear weapon program and develop peaceful nuclear power for their citizens.

Stay tuned……..
